poo poo that's a good idea, the comic has a crazy high body count. I think I might start one going forward

e: Current body count is

22 people/humanoids/alien-types (mostly humans)
1 dog

ee: vyelkin has a much better count a couple posts down

His mom is too old and broke to take great care of him and his dad is dead and French. I forget how they got him initially.

Nice! I think that one guy who dies in the dream in #5 counts as 1 though, since his body turns up IRL when Annette wakes up

I counted him based on the newspaper report, but I realize that people dying in dreams probably did die for real thanks to Annette's dreams coming true, so that means the old lady and the dog in #8 should count too.

She is going to regret this SO FAST.

She is going to be so horribly malformed.

Plus, going to have to eat like 4000-5000 calories a day, if not more. The majority of the 2000 you normally get goes to just keeping your brain running.

That's probably at least part of the joke. That's a new take on a genie who fucks you over by giving you exactly what you ask for.

But also, who’s asking for wings when the option to just magically fly exists? Wings means you’re bound by physics. Magic is magic.

Conversely, go a bit more nuts with it. Maybe a jet-powered rear end? I dunno.

Jets require an intake and some way of compressing volumes of air and fuel so that the expanding gases can be forced out the exhaust (butthole in this case). You're going to be going over jet engine schematics with that genie for months at least, and probably building and testing prototypes in the meantime, and then when it's all done your mouth is probably converted into a jet intake

I've worked enough physically demanding jobs with super fat people to know that diet still matters no matter how many calories you burn.
